Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: I work as a teacher in a private school, and they teach the students to recite anthems collectively, so I rebuke them for it. He asks: Am I correct in this rebuke?
Answer:
Yes, yes, you are correct in this example. Collective anthems are not permissible because they are a hallmark of the Sufis or a hallmark of the partisans. Collective anthems are either for the partisans, who praise their methodology and encourage it, or for the Sufis, who worship Allah through anthems. So this is not permissible. Yes.
